John -- I have hacked on autofs so that it now takes the smbmnt style options to mount SAMBA file systems. However, I haven't tested it very much. When the new rawhide tree becomes available this friday, or when a new beta image is available, please have a look at it (autofs-3.1.3). Please reopen the bug if it is still broken. Preston, I updated both my autofs (to 3.1.3-1) and Samaba 2.0.3 to the latest from rawhide but I unfortunately so no change in behavior. I still had to use my old smbmount.sh to get it to work. Am I missing something regarding the update?? --John Cavanaugh We were not able to finish integrating smb mounts into autofs in time for the 6.0 release. Full integration is a target for our next release. Preston, Now with the new samba-2.0.5a things have really gotten wacky. Samba has again changed how smbfs shares are mounted. I upgraded both my samba & autofs off last weeks rawhide and they dont play together. Hopefully Samba wont be changing that much so a solution will stay viable for a while... I reopened this issue simply because of the interactions with Samba and that the smbmount semantics had changed. PS. I figured I better get this update in before everybody at Redhat goes crazy celebrating their newfound wealth after the IPO and wont recover from their hangover for a week or so. ;-) --John Cavanaugh *** Bug 2626 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** autofs now calls smbmnt directly, meaning that only passwordless shares can be mounted. IMHO the smbmount command should be used in lieu of smbmnt, as it allows more options to be passed in.*** Bug 4305 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** The version of autofs shipped with RedHat6 does not support the new switches of the smbmount version (also shipped with RedHat6). Because of this, smb devices can't be mounted by autofs. You should be able to mount SMB shares with autofs with a line like the following: smbfoo -fstype=smb,user=foo,passwd=foo ://foo/bar This works with the latest autofs & samba in the Raw Hide trees. I have upgraded to 6.1 and I still cant seem to make this work, maybe I am doing something stupid. I have the lines in my autofs files as described in this defect. Below is a log of what looks like a psuedo successful attempt to get things working. cavanaugh-linux-cavanaug /etc 1042% cd /auto/cavanaugh-nt/d cavanaugh-linux-cavanaug . 1043% ls ls: .: Input/output error cavanaugh-linux-cavanaug . 1044% pwd . cavanaugh-linux-cavanaug . 1045% df Filesystem 1k-blocks Used Available Use% Mounted on /dev/hda7 6396215 5230049 834827 86% / /dev/hda1 38855 7757 29092 21% /boot /dev/hde1 8583124 1643916 6494128 20% /hfs/d1 /dev/hdg1 8583124 1639935 6498109 20% /hfs/d2 cavanaugh-linux-cavanaug . 1046% cat /etc/mt mtab mtools.conf cavanaugh-linux-cavanaug . 1046% cat /etc/mtab /dev/hda7 / ext2 rw 0 0 none /proc proc rw 0 0 /dev/hda1 /boot ext2 rw 0 0 /dev/hde1 /hfs/d1 ext2 rw 0 0 /dev/hdg1 /hfs/d2 ext2 rw 0 0 none /dev/pts devpts rw,gid=5,mode=620 0 0 automount(pid676) /auto/local autofs rw,fd=6,pgrp=676,minproto=2,maxproto=3 0 0 automount(pid686) /auto/cavanaugh-nt autofs rw,fd=6,pgrp=686,minproto=2,maxproto=3 0 0 automount(pid698) /auto/cavanaugh-98 autofs rw,fd=6,pgrp=698,minproto=2,maxproto=3 0 0 //cavanaugh-nt/C /auto/cavanaugh-nt/c smbfs 0 0 //cavanaugh-nt/D /auto/cavanaugh-nt/d smbfs 0 0 Mounting the filesystem by hand using smbmount works fine. Something is definitely amiss with the interactions with autofs. --John C ------- Additional Comments From 10/26/99 06:54 ------- I've managed to workaround this problem using the following line in auto.something. For example, here's the line I used to mount a device called 'test': ---->from auto.test test -fstype=smb,user=username,passwd=password ://remote/test ---->end It works with the new samba and the existing autofs packages. This should all be fixed with the latest versions of mount, samba-client, and autofs from Raw Hide, slated for our next release. To work properly, your autofs map should include "fstype=smbfs". Please reopen this bug again if updating doesn't solve this problem. |
